Do you carry business cards?
After the 2nd year at the fair, a dear friend suggested we get business cards. Besides the Fair, there are several events we attend through out the year, and we are always meeting and introducing ourselves, and everyone is adding emails to their cell phones, or still digging for pen and paper! The business cards were a FABULOUS idea! I could had them out to as many people as possible taking my pictures. Not only my email is on them, but I added my website and my yahoo ID ( and on my recent order added my twitter ID as well! )
We quickly set out exploring all our options for design as well as cost - ultimately we were happiest with Overnight Prints - They had not only lots of design options available, but a great tool allowing you to create your own design and of course the best feature was cost, there is always some excellent deal going on. Just 2 weeks ago there was a 40% promo I got in on and was able to order 1000 new card w/shipping for only $33.00!!
I received my cards, got a cute business card holder, and the cards have been a huge success, every one loves them, and the idea! I pass them out everywhere :)
Here is a pic of my cards right from the building tool - I just love the pink fuzzy handcuffs I was able to use for the background!

Happy Samhain! or Halloween for the rest of you

So "Halloween" has always been one of my favorite times a year. I relished as I got older that we had kids in the home, and from the neighborhood, that I could take out trick or treating ( Yes as I was a senior in high school some people would not give me candy! )
As I started down my path of discovery into the Wiccan/Pagan spirituality, I found there was more meaning to Halloween than just childhood trick or treating, though I DO still love the candy LOL.
Samhain is almost upon us and in the spirit of my love for the holiday I have decided to transform my blog to celebrate the upcoming events!
Next to Christmas, Halloween is the most commercialized celebration in the United States and Canada. This ancient festival originated far from North America however, and centuries before the first European set foot on the continent. The ancient Druids who inhabited what we now call Great Britain placed great importance on the passing of one season to the next, holding "Fire Festivals" which were celebrated for three days (two days on either side of the day itself).
One of these festivals was called Samhain is pronounced "sow-en" and is the Wiccan New Year, both a beginning and an ending point of the ever turning wheel. At this time the third and final harvest of the year is celebrated, a yeild that ensures that life witll continue throughout the harsh winter ahead. But as life is celebrated, so is death. Witches traditionally believe Samhain to be a time when the viel seperating the world of the living from that of the dead ( the otherworld ) is parted, and ancestors may join in the festivities. Popular activities include communication with the dead. divinations to see what the New Year holds and the hosting of the "dumb supper", a feast for both the living and the spirits of the dead that is held in complete silence. The modern festival of Halloween has its roots in Samhain. The popular childrens custom of Trick -or-Treating stems from an Old English practice in which children went door to door begging "soul cakes " to feed the wandering spirits. Many Wiccans also mark the symbolic death of the Horned God on this day.
In order to make themselves and their homes less inviting to these wayward spirits, the ancient Celts would douse all their fires. There was also a secondary purpose to this, after extinguishing all their fires, they would re-light them from a common source, the Druidic fire that was kept burning at Usinach, in the Middle of Ireland Samhain was considered to be a gateway not only from the land of the dead to the land of the living, but also between Summer and Fall/Winter. For the Druids, this was the last gasp of summer (it was also the Celtic New Year), so therefore they made sure it went out with a bang before they had to button down for the winter ahead.
They would dress up in bizarre costumes and parade through their villages causing destruction in order to scare off any recently departed souls who might be prowling for bodies to inhabit, in addition to burning animals and other offerings to the Druidic deities. It is also a popular belief that they would burn people who they believed to be possessed, but this has largely been debunked as myth. This yearly festival was adopted by the Roman invaders, who helped to propagate it throughout the rest of the world (and at that time, the Roman Empire was the world). The word "Halloween" itself actually comes from a contraction of All Hallows Eve, or All Saint's Day (November 1), which is a Catholic day of observance in honour of saints
This tradition was later brought to the North American continent by Irish immigrants who were escaping the Potato Famine in their homeland. In addition to the festival itself, the immigrants brought several customs with them, including one of the symbols most commonly associated with Halloween -- the Jack 'O Lantern.

HNT ~ pixie toes

Not the sexiest of "HNT Toes" I could come up with LOL
but I had major surgery 9 days ago and have been laid up
in bed all this time .. and have another week or two to go!
These are my "sexy" recovery toes peeking out the end of my blanket :)
Just a lil story to go with this:
I could see her toes peeking out from under the blaket, my mouth
began to instantly water .. the thought of them twisting against my tongue,
teasing and inviting .. my breath wavered in anticipation!
I crawled up along side the couch, our eyes making contact and
sending a shiver right through me. Slowly I get closer, first reaching
out to stroke my fingers along her silken skin .. I can barely contain myself.
Stroking, caressing, hands clasping around to offer a gentle massage
to each foot before I allow myself the pleasure of her taste.
As I bring her first foot closer, my tongue slips out in greeting, licking softly
up her big toe and then sucking it between my lips
i gasp a sigh of contentment ... pure heaven.

To Whom it May Concern...
Sick Humor: A letter from your chronic condition and a reply A letter from your chronic condition and a reply. Sometimes you just have to laugh!
To whom it may concern:
Congratulations! You have been selected to be the host for (any chronic condition -- RA, FM, lupus, MS, you name it). You will begin to experience many or all of these symptoms -- and may even deal with several of them at the same time.
--Pain can be anywhere you can imagine. We are equal opportunity destroyers, therefore we will choose many places for you to experience pain. We have even devised many different types of pain -- it could be aching, stabbing, throbbing, tingling, burning, gripping, or cramping. We are continually improving our repetoire of pain categories, so updates are to be expected.
--Dizziness. This can be accompanied by nausea, mental confusion, ringing in the ears, vomiting, loss of coordination, and sensations of spinning, rocking, or shaking. We try to simulate the experience of riding a never-ending roller coaster to satisfy your adventurous spirit. No safety harnesses required, and you have no choice of when the coaster ride starts,ends, or how fast it goes.
--Extreme fatigue (Now remember, this is not just being "tired". We will suddenly "pull your plug", so to speak, and you will have NO energy at all. Even dressing or taking a shower will be too daunting of a task for you to complete. And because we like surprises, we will NOT give you any advance warning, so you could be in the middle of the grocery store, at work, playing with you kids, or trying to clean the house.)
--Poor balance, lack of coordination. Let's just say you may walk or talk like you are drunk -- even if you haven't had any alcohol recently. And for those of you who have never indulged in alcohol, you are now going to understand what it is like to be drunk and to have a hangover.
--Forgetting, losing, dropping things. These are just a few of the perks of your condition. You will learn to expect them, but never to enjoy them.
In addition to the symptoms above, we also want to eliminate some things from your crowded lifestyle. Here are a few of the things which will be taken away from you now that you are chosen to have a chronic condition:
The ability to stand or walk for longer than 15 minutes without experiencing pain in you feet, ankles, knees, or legs.
Tthe ability to sit for longer than 10 minutes without experience cramping in your legs and butt, or shooting pains in your back.
The ability to complete any task which requires more than 10 minutes of concentration, multi-step activities or long-term projects will take 2-3 times longer then average.
The ability to play and run with your children like you did before.
The ability to have a "normal" social life.
The ability to accumulate sick days at work/ school to earn the perfect attendance bonus.
As indicated previously, this condition is in constant flux and more symptoms will be added as we deem necessary. There is no warranty guarantee, technical support, or customer service available.
Sincerely, Your chronic condition
Dear My chronic condition:
I would like to clarify that, while you may wreak havoc on my body, and maybe even confuse my mind -- you cannot have my heart or my soul. You cannot have my faith, my hope, or my love. There are some good things that you have given me, things I never could have experienced had you not come to possess my body.
You have given me: -- strengthened prayer life and increased dependence on God's grace and strenth, rather than my own -- renewed friendship with strong, close, true friends. -- appreciation for every precious moment I am given. A gift that is sometimes lost on the "healthy". -- growth in character, perseverance, and hope. -- inspiration for to help others. -- more compassion for others who are suffering. -- better knowledge of my own body & health. -- a reason to eat more nutritiously and take care of myself. -- reasons to rest when I need it.
You see, you will not find me an agreeable host. I will fight you, I will not give up. On bad days, I will take care of myself. On the good days, I will take advantage of every precious moment. You have thrown some obstacles in my life's journey, but I will go over them or around them, no matter what it takes. In fact, while I am overcoming them, I will stop for a moment to reflect upon the mountain I am climbing, plant a few seeds and then continue on. I will learn and grow from this experience and help others.
Sincerely, ME
